    • Hi there,

      If you can go back to lumiere version and post here when done then I will look at it as quickly as I can.

      Best practice when doing things like this is to have a clone site rather than the live site as we never know what issues may or may not be involved.

      Hope this helps 8)

    • Hi there,

      As I suspected in my first post there is other css that is required too.

      Simply create a file called "<TEMPLATENAME>-custom.css" and put this file in the CSS folder of the template (where <TEMPLATENAME> is the name of the template as seen in template manager e.g. rt_hadron). GANTRY4 will automatically load this CSS file. If you wish, you can also have browser specific files by appending, for example, "-ie9" making the filename "<TEMPLATENAME>-custom-ie9.css"

      In the new rt_hadron-custom.css add the following code...
      .sprocket-mosaic .sprocket-mosaic-image-container .sprocket-mosaic-content-container .sprocket-mosaic-title-container {
          background: url("../images/patterns/waffle.png") repeat scroll 0 0 rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.3);
      }

      You will need to copy the background image (waffle.png) from lumiere to hadron.

      I am wondering if you have made any changes to the default RokSprocket files? I am seeing the following code for your tags...
      <li data-mosaic-filterby="Provence2" class="Provence2">
          <div class="sprocket-mosaic-shadow"></div>
              <span>Provence2</span>
      </li>

      The div between the li and span should not be there. This is causing the tags to highlight as you move mouse cursor.

      I am wondering if the files have been copied across correctly as there is a big chunk of code missing from each item. The rendered code should be...
      <a href="/index.php/component/content/article/13-roksprocket-mosaic/20-flexible-layouts">
          <img class="sprocket-mosaic-image" alt="" src="/images/sampledata/fruitshop/apple.jpg">
      	<span class="sprocket-mosaic-hover"></span>
      	<span class="sprocket-mosaic-shadow"></span>
      	<span class="sprocket-mosaic-hovercontent"><span>+</span></span>
      </a>

      And your code is actually rendering this...
      <img class="sprocket-mosaic-image" alt="" src="/images/rocketlauncher/frontpage/feature/animation provence2.png">

      If there is no linking then that explains the missing <a> tag, but you should still have the 3 span classes.

      Can you use the 'secure' option above post input to provide me with a temporary Super Admin access please and I will take a look to see what the cause may be.

      Thanks :)

    • Hi there,

      OK - perhaps my instructions could have been a bit clearer. When I said to replace the hadron files with the lumier files I mean that the directories had to be the same. You copied the lumiere files to the mosaic folder but let the index.php in place which is for hadron. I renamed that to index.bak and this cured the tag and hover problem.

      Second issue was that you created the rt_hadron-custom.css file but you saved that in the wrong place. My instructions say it must go to the css directory in the template. I have moved it and now the hover background works.

      It also seems like you may have a problem with something as the hover only works if there is a link in place. I cannot change the first two items from none to custom. Neither can I access the tabs of the module. Not sure if this is a language thing as I changed my profile to English language for admin.

      I will try and replicate on a clean install and see what happens. We do have a new RokSprocket that was supposed to clear some of the more recent problems with using the 'Simple' option.

      Hope this helps 8)
